Nvidia gtx 980 ti vs gtx 1070..... Quick Need Help!!!!!

PcNoob222 · Jul 18, 2016

Hi, I need to know which graphics card is better the EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 SC or GIGABYTE GTX 980 TI GAMING G1. I'm not sure which one there are mixed reviews and benchmarks please help.

Thanks

Title and question do not match....

GTX 1070 is up to 15% faster than 980Ti

EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 SC and GIGABYTE GTX 1070 GAMING G1 are similar in performance, pick the cheaper one or the one with your prefered color scheme.

How does the title and the question not match and several benchmarks show the 980 ti just beating the 1070 and some don't.

PcNoob222 :

Your question is comparing two 1070s

PcNoob222 · Jul 18, 2016

guanyu210379 :

oh I'm stupid sorry, the gigabyte card was meant to be the 980 ti

guanyu210379 · Jul 18, 2016

GTX 1070 is up to 15% faster than 980Ti and also more expensive

PcNoob222 · Jul 18, 2016

guanyu210379 :

Do you have both of them or are you sure like lots or bench marking vids have them at the same idk sorry if I'm annoying just want to make the right purchase

guanyu210379 · Jul 18, 2016

No, I am still on my 2x GTX970s.
You can try youtube, there plenty of reviews and tests there, if you wanna be sure.
You can also google stuffs.

guanyu210379 :

Thanks.

guanyu210379 · Jul 18, 2016

Just to let you know my opinion.
If you are already on GTX980Ti, spending that much for a GTX 1070 does not worth it.
If you are on GTX980/R9 390x or lower, I would go directly to GTX1070....or find a second handed GTX980Ti for cheap.

guanyu210379 :

Thanks. Oh, and I am not on anything this will be my first build. Trying to save up money considering I am only 13. I will look at some used 980 Ti.

RobCrezz · Jul 18, 2016

Thats a lot of money to save up for a 13 years old!

PcNoob222 · Jul 18, 2016

RobCrezz :

I know i am going to buy it piece by piece the monitor and Graphics card will be at the end because they are the most expensive.

RobCrezz · Jul 18, 2016

PcNoob222 :

Yeah good idea, graphics cards move faster than everything else, so its a good option to leave it last as they will get cheaper over time as new ones come out.

Also, the integrated graphics in the modern i5 and i7 is good enough to play some games until you get a graphics card (things like CD:GO or League of Legends etc)

http://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/ZY73bj There sorry

guanyu210379 · Jul 19, 2016

Wow! Already more than AUD2000 without the GPU?
Expensive mechanical keyboard+mouse, MG279Q, liquid cooling....etc....
You sure you can not afford the GTX1070 now?

You know you can bring down the cost a bit by choosing cheaper items?
Less fancy keyboards e.g. Qpad MK-Pro 50
Less fancy mouse e.g. Sharkoon SharkZone
Less fancy cooler e.g. CM Hyper 212

If you do not plan OC you can also reduce the price by getting e.g. i5 6500 and H170 mobo

PcNoob222 · Jul 19, 2016

yeah, I know I want it to last 4-5 years without upgrading or maybe I will get another to 4gb sticks. and I want to try and overclock like I said piece by piece

Pc6777 · Jul 19, 2016

I modified ypur build and made it a much better value http://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/ There are a lot of things I would do differently in that build. First of all the motherboard. A 250 dollar motherboard won't help at all in games besides overclocking. And a waterblock in a waste of money in this scenario too. Instead of buying this high end overclocking motherboard and watercooler, just get a regular air cooler for a reasonable price and an i7. It would cost less to get an i7 a cheaper mobo and no waterblock than a super expensive mobo an i5 and a waterblock. I have a cheap micro atx mobo and it works just fine for gaming, the only reason to get a really high end mobo is for extra features or if you have a really high budget and want the best of the best or sli. The mouse you picked , in my opinion is a bad value I found a 30 dollar gaming mouse that has a customizable color scheme. Netherless there's no need to spend 100 dollars on a gaming mouse, it's a ripoff in my opinion. For the keyboard i noticed you picked a keyboard with custemizable colors. I found a coirsair gaming keyboard with custemizable colors that cost slightly less. But if you were willing to get a mechanical gaming keyboard that id a rixed color, you coild save around 80 bucks. In my modified version I was able to fit an i7, and 16 gigs of ram for less money. Plus you way want to add additional storage besides the sdd. A wd blue 1 terabyte drive is a good option, there reliable and a great value.

guanyu210379 :

Hey, will overclocking increase the performance if so, how much.

guanyu210379 · Jul 19, 2016

About the OC...
OC is also a matter of luck, if you are lucky, you get a really good processor that can go high. Nobody can tell you how high you can reach. Each processor is unique.
You can go up to estimated around 20% more performance, assuming the cooling is sufficient and you have a very cood chip....you only have to pay more for your electrical bill. 20% faster processor does not mean automatically 20% more fps, many factors still play a role e.g. your GPU plays a role too.
